Title: Just how stupid are these people?
Post by: the_ignored on June 29, 2013, 07:36:03 am
When The Secular Coalition for America (http://secular.org/news/nontheists-meet-white-house-office-faith-based-and-neighborhood-partnerships) had a picture taken of them meeting with the White House Office of Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships, xians started to freak out (http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/06/25/atheist-leaders-recently-met-with-the-white-houses-faith-based-office-but-what-did-they-discuss/) because of the "evil" eyes that the atheists had.  Telling them that it's the usual bloody camera flash did no good. 

FreethoughtBlogs has an article about it:

My quotes taken from the Blaze article itself.

Did you notice the group photograph? Obviously it’s an unedited shot, but they certainly have strange eyes. The camera doesn’t lie.

No indeed something does NOT look right in their eyes. Soulless…sort of like our Dear Leader and his “You can never spend too much of the citizens’ money” wife… If God does not inhabit; evil WILL enter. Indeed….

Look at their eyes. Reminiscent of Poltergeist!

I know people will just say it is because of the lighting, but take a look at each one of their eyes in the picture…..something doesn’t seem right. They all look evil.

@Lucretius. I know we have access to science…matter of fact I have 2 degrees in the science field. However, there are just some things that science can’t explain. Despite your little comment about “minimal dose of science education”.

Well some of those are just commenting that the eyes look creepy.

Which is true, partially helped by the creepy smiles.

Doesn't mean that they are possessed. And I don't think all the commenters are thinking that either. Just some of them.

Spoken like a guy who has no degree in anything.  Two degrees in "the science field," which field of science, there is much more than just one?

This could be an interest experiment. Take this group and show them pictures of people of various faiths, ask them to sort them by creepiness of eyes and see if it correlates with religious beliefs (or lack thereof).

Or, the fundies could just follow the link to a Christian school's how-to page for removing red eye effects in photos...except that's not any fun! :'(

Now they're freaking out over group photos.

I think all of us atheists should posts images of our eyes in that thread, while claiming to be Christians, just to see if they ramble on about how joyous and life-filled our eyes are in comparison to those evil, evil atheists in the photo.

If ATHEISTS were as secure in their NON-BELIEF as we were in our BELIEF, they should find our dedication down-right FUNNY! The fact that are absolutely TERRIFIED and run screaming to Court over anything that even SUGGESTS it is connected to Christianity! Poor souls must lead horrible lives always looking behind them lest they MISS something that would TORMENT their existence! But they CAN take heart in the fact that although their FELLOW atheists have in the past and STILL DO, murder, behead, burn alive, bury alive, and slay hundreds of MILLIONS of men, women, and children SOLELY for their faith! But not ONE single Atheist, non-believer, agnostic, and/or Secular Humanist has been slain for their LACK of it!

Not only a looking in a shiny mirror, but looking in a shiny mirror while lying.

The big, green, grassy field where he mixed vinegar with baking soda twice, then promptly spent the night in self-flagellation for eating the forbidden fruit of knowledge.

I give up. We clearly don't live in the same universe.

And I totally believe that they wouldn't attack & possibly kill people that they call soulless demons, provided there were no laws or social norms to hold them back.

"There are only two things in this world that are truly infinite: the universe, and human stupidity. And I'm not so sure about the former." -Albert Einstein.

I think I'll just leave this quote here. Says all you need to know.
